WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) today thanked Jon Trotter of ­­­­Downs, Kan., for serving as a U.S. Senate Intern in his Washington, D.C., office this summer.

“Jon has been doing important work for Kansans and gaining valuable experience that will help him in the future.” Sen. Moran said. “I was an intern myself – it’s what got me interested in public service. Our interns continue to prove to me that there are a lot of great, young people across our state who have an interest in making a difference in the lives of others. Young people like Jon give me confidence that good things are going to happen in this country, especially in Kansas, because our kids are growing up to become impressive, hardworking young adults.”

Trotter is a 2014 graduate of Washburn University, and is currently entering his second year at Liberty University School of Law. He is working toward a juris doctorate in international law and foreign affairs. After graduation, Jon plans to apply for the U.S. Air Force Judge Advocate General (JAG) program.

During his time working in the United States Senate, Trotter assisted Sen. Moran with legislative and administrative duties on behalf of the state of Kansas.
